[quote name='Jus Lukin' timestamp='1465923136' post='3072161'] Here you go, Dad. Not wishing to disappoint, this is the most rock'n'roll veg pic that popped up on Google! [attachment=221547:cocabbage081613afeat.jpg] [/quote] That's no way to 'handle' cabbage..! I hope he 'leaves' them alone in future.

I came here looking for culinary or gardening tips. [Yoda] Disappointed I am. |/Yoda]

One advantage of living way out in the sticks. By the time the van gets here, he sure as eggs doesn't want to have to come back tomorrow..!

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1465902667' post='3071943'] I think the euphemism is 'passed on through natural causes'. Or as I like to say, 'gone tits-up'. [/quote] Euphemisms are all very well, but sometimes a direct kick up the rear is the best ploy, or so I'm told.

[quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1465900577' post='3071920']... I presume the previous bass player(s) didn't "shape up" then? [/quote] ... or died of old age..?

[quote name='The Dude On Bass' timestamp='1465838638' post='3071462'] Thanks for your warm welcome!!! I think I posted my video in the wrong section!!! I 'll post it again where it belongs!!! Thanks brothers! [/quote] Fixed, I've moved it to the 'Share your music' section. Please PM me your bank details so that I may invoice you correctly. Incidentally, when 'pasting' the Youtube link, edit to remove the 's' from 'https' to have the link properly embedded. Just sayin'. If you have issues (of any sort...) with a post, yours or anyone else's, the correct course of action is to use the 'Report' button; the Mods will see any message typed using that and will be able to act accordingly; usually very swiftly.

Good afternoon, JD, and ... [sharedmedia=core:attachments:167528] Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share.

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1465817235' post='3071152'] Bwahahahahahahaha!!! I mean, it's good that they're trying and all, but really - [u][i][b]this [/b][/i][/u]is what the fuss was about? Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! [/quote] Everyone starts out somewhere. Some have survived worse... http://youtu.be/QQyB5buEV5s Personally, I find the apostrophe more shocking than anything else, but there you go...

[quote name='The Dude On Bass' timestamp='1465808361' post='3071058'] Thanks for your welcome! is it alright if I post a video of me playing bass lines to introduce myself? [/quote] It is indeed; we even have specific sections of the forum for just that..! Have a look here, maybe..? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/forum/95-share-your-music/"]Share your music ...[/url] There are several other opportunities for participating, such as the Noodle Bar and the Basschat Composition Challenge, too, as well as a place for videos of live gigs, or your favourite clips. It's all here somewhere; have a look round; make yourself at home...

Good evening, TDoB, and ... [sharedmedia=core:attachments:167528] Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share. There are more than a few here on the Continent (I'm in France, too, hence the '33' and '53'...), so you are far from alone.

[quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1465769816' post='3070905'] But are the small ones more juicy? [/quote] Maybe, but less appeal.

Orange cab speakers have an Outspan.

Mark sent me a pair of bass pick-ups, to France, packaged with great attention, and received promptly. An excellent transaction, great flexibility; highly satisfied, and so highly recommended. Many thanks, lad. A definite 'thumb's up' from me.

If no-one tried out ridiculous stuff, they'd never be any progress..! That's how the very best get their 'tone' in the first instance..! All of your permutations above (and more...) are valid; the effect of each will be subtly different, and more suited to one person's taste or another. Plug 'em in, play around for a while, then decide. No, your questions are not unusual. You're entirely normal, but have confidence that there is no 'right' way for all. Only you can decide.

I'm a pragmatic, practical individual with very little, if any, imagination, and so looked no further than the end of my nose, and took the picture to be that of a G.A.S. mask.

I'm older than Blue. I'm not going to even listen to the clip, as, whatever the circumstances, the vocabulary used is not that which I'm prepared to support. If the bloke has no better than that to proffer, I'd suggest putting down his sticks for a while and getting a more complete education. It's not a question of music, nor passion, but of behaving as a human, especially towards others, whoever they are. Bad manners does not excuse bad manners. The bloke shows himself as an oaf. and an ignoramus. A real shame, as he [i]did [/i]have some qualities.

Good afternoon, Steve, and ... [sharedmedia=core:attachments:167528] Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share. Nice to see you finally made it here, despite your 'infidelity'. You're not alone; there are many here who play other instruments (I'm a drummer..! ).

[quote name='LZD56' timestamp='1465681764' post='3070235'] That's no good - it's left handed [/quote] A quick swap at the nut should fix that.

The Hofner's are fine, but not long-scale. My Verithin weighs... well, it just doesn't, but it's medium-scale. Is that too far 'out of the box'..? Eminently giggable; I've done loads. No good for 'slap', though.
